Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Cui Xie became the foreign student, although his status had not changed, his treatment suddenly became more expensive. When I went to tuition with Assistant Professor Xie in the evening, the notes I copied were one-third thicker than usual, and "University Yanyi" was about to become "Shangshu" plus "Tongjian".

Assistant Professor Xie said kindly: "Today the Prince's papers were issued by our State Supervisor, so they were sent back to the Qiu Jijiu Judging. In the future, Hanlin will write the questions. I am afraid that all of you papers will have to be handed over to those bachelors, Edit it to see. I have not selected other companions for the time being, I will just leave you alone, and I have to teach you to the full volume of the book to see people."

Cui Xie’s scientific test is coming soon. Learning what he didn’t need in the test, it was a bit empty. He couldn’t help but ask him: “I heard that a notice has been posted outside the Shuntian Mansion. I'm afraid the paper is not enough. Can you leave me some more articles, sir?"

Assistant Professor Wang, who was watching the travel notes next to him, said: "Such an humbly study, I can't blame the small three yuan. You must not let him down at Lingtai. Don't just think about accompanying the exam. There are many questions and papers that should be issued. Write some. If you are not free, I will help you with some questions from the four books?"

Assistant Professor Xie waved his hand: "Thank you Brother Wojiao for your kindness, I'm still able to come, I'm afraid there are too many questions, this student can't do it."

Cui Xie smiled and said, "Students' main job is to write articles. Where can I not do anything? If I can't do it, I will come to ask Mr. for mercy, and I will delay it."

He didn't have to engage in the Three Kingdoms Exhibition recently. Mr. Lu was busy promoting pencils and didn't stare at him to write poems, but he spared a lot of time, just to make a fuss. It's just that the academic piles are so tight that there will be no time to copy those laborious clozes, reading comprehensions, case studies for Cui Heng... he can only write small essays and big essays.

He secretly sighed that he was not a good brother, so he decided to take back the topic left by Assistant Professor Xie and share it with Cui Heng.

Assistant Professor Xie didn't have a suitable topic at hand, so he said casually, "There is a way in the world, and the conquest of rituals and music comes from the emperor", telling him to go back to compose, and then comforted him: "It's just a scientific exam. It's nothing if you don't. It’s not easy to take the township exam when you are studying in the Imperial College? Don’t rush the science exam, just go to the government office before the exam next year.”

But the scholar's future is ultimately from the article. So many people are preparing for the exam outside, hoping to be selected as Hanlin's papers. Isn't it also for the purpose of obtaining a famous teacher correspondence education and increasing their knowledge?

In the final analysis, it was all for passing those three trials and getting back with a fame.

Xie Jing verbally comforted him not to care about Christie. In fact, he took it seriously. He got up and went to the shelf to flip for a while, turning over and saying: "This year, it is Chen Ji and Chen Yushi who are studying Beizhili. I remember receiving his article, and looking back to find out you try to figure it out."

This year's study was changed to Chen Yushi, and it is no longer Dai Yushi who took him as the leader of the Taoist trial.

When Cui Xie heard the news, he suddenly remembered Dai Ren's points and expectations when he picked up the words for him, and subconsciously asked, "I don't know where did Master Dai who studied last year moved?"

Xie Jing thought for a while, and replied vaguely: "I haven't heard of Dai Yushi returning to Beijing. He has produced many talents, and you are a little ternary. The evaluation should be good. According to common sense, which one Xu moved? The provincial patrol envoy or right-hand ruler, right?"

Those who come out of the Inspectorate all have a good future. When the term is full, the worst will have to be a deputy. The teaching assistant circle of them is far away from the ministries and colleges in the Chinese Studies, and they rarely have friendship. It is rare to hear their news. Xie Jing is just speculation based on reason, and there is no real fact.

However, Cui Xie doesn't have to see Dai Yushi. He only feels comforted when he hears that he can be promoted. You can ask Xie Qianhu for more information.

He copied his homework and ran home on his white horse before the curfew.

Cui Liangdong and Cui Qi were both waiting for him in the courtyard, before he stepped into the main hall, Cui Liangdong snatched it up, and said mysteriously, "My son, something strange happened to our house! Someone sent a gift to our house today, guess what What are you giving away?"

Cui Qi brought him warm almond tea, then nodded, and said seriously: "It is indeed a miracle. The treasurer only asked my buddy to tell me during the day that someone had taken away Xiao Qiao, who had been hanging up in our house. ,until night……"

Cui Liangdong let out a "hi", waved his hands and said, "Brother Xiaoqi, what else can you guess? This is so much less interesting! He worked so hard in school, we have to go home with him Say something new and interesting."

Cui Qi pursed his mouth and said, "I don't like to guess and guess four words in one sentence. Isn't it enough to guess outside? It's better to spend less time at home, and if you have something to say, it's better."

The two have caught up with the cross talk. Although it's not funny, there is a teaser, which is a counterpoint.

Cui Xie smiled at the venue, put aside the almond tea in the cup and said, "I don’t bother to guess or guess. Isn’t it that Mr. Shuixi asked someone to get Xiao Qiaotu and called him Did anyone send the picture to our house?"

Cui Liangdong glanced at Cui Qi complainingly, then smiled flatteringly at Cui Xie: "I can't blame the emperor and the prince for seeing the son. The son really knows everything. We haven't said anything yet. Guessed."

Cui Xie asked: "What did he get for it? You give me the poems and seals he left. Let's keep them. If you keep it for a few years, it will become a treasure for the world."

Cui Qi asked: "The eldest brother recognizes Mr. Shuixi? Didn't he never come to pick up your paintings? Why did he suddenly ask someone to pick them up and send them to the house? Did he know that you are in front of the emperor and the prince? Ask you?"

No, no, people are really winning in front of the prince and future emperor, even if he is now stronger than him, what can he ask for?

Cui Xie shook his head and said with a slightly smug smile: "I won this painting from Mr. Shuixi. Don't worry, just keep it."

win? Cui Qi asked in astonishment: "Isn't he the number one talented man in Beijing? Big brother, you can beat him? If you can beat him, doesn't it mean you are better at learning than him?"

Cui Xie laughed and said, "It's natural to be inferior to learning. It's just that he bet against others and compare me with some questions, and I answered them all, and he rewarded me with this painting."

This gamble really doesn't tell me what to learn for the exam, just memorize it.

Cui Xie silently recalled yesterday's examination. Although he had answered all the Hanlin questions, it was undeniable that none of those questions were too difficult. The answers were all within the scope of the two lectures.

Those Hanlins all knew that he was managing the "Poems", and they all reduced the difficulty when publishing the "Shangshu" questions. The answer is safe in the syllabus. Most of them are choices, judgments, and selection of words to fill in the blanks. The focus of the test is to recite. And he is precisely a student with his own open-book test BUFF, no matter how many similar interference items are added to those options, it will not interfere with him who has the correct answer.

However, the test of "University" was a bit biased, and I didn't test the content in "University Yanyi", and it was more based on the original text. Cui Xie learned the best in the Four Books and published the "Four Books in Dialogue". It can be said that he played well, and he could extract the answers from the text in the sermon——

Asked him the relationship between Mingde, Xinmin, and Stopping at the Supreme Good: He answered that "Mingde" and "Xinmin" should stop at the best.

Ask him how to make "Mingde" and "Xinmin" stop at the best kind: He answered that it is the kung fu of cultivating Mingde to know things, sincerity and righteousness; Qi family rules the country and the world is the means for Xinmin; knowing, calm, calm, Peace, worry, and ability are the right way to stop at the best.

Asked why the university didn't rule the world, but said that the world is peaceful: He replied that the injustice in the world lies in the injustice of the hearts of the people, and that the hearts of the people are flat and the world is ruled.

...

When it was Li Dongyang's turn, it seemed as if he was about to embarrass him, deliberately asking him: "Why does the university make money?"

The title of CCTV's "Prosperity of Wealth" column is contributed by "University". The original sentence is called "Prosperity of Wealth", which talks about the country's method of increasing income and reducing expenditure.

Don’t look at this simple and practical sentence, which is popular in modern times, but among the scholars of Qing Gao, it is politically incorrect to mention the word "make money"——

When Wang Anshi talked about financial management, Zhu Xi ridiculed Zhu Xi. Until the Ming Dynasty Chenghua years, all the scholars in the world had to ridicule them. If he is serious about how important it is to make money, he might have to make these Hanlins feel unclear; but if he puts on a high air and does not talk about the interests of the country, this question will not be answered...

Just when everyone was planning to pool money to invite Li Weiwei and Elder Ge for a meal, a hint of inspiration flashed in his mind. He remembered that in Li Dongyang’s "Hong Fan · Jiuchou" on the outline, the third "Eight Governments" was Headed by the two policies of "food" and "goods", it is said that it is an important task for the welfare of life. He simply answered "University" with the syllabus of "Shangshu" and asked Li Dongyang to speak for himself.

These lecturers had already read the two lecture outlines. After hearing a few words, they heard the source of the answer, smiled knowingly, and looked at Li Dongyang and said: "This student is really attacking the shield with the spear of the son. It must be counted that he has answered it! Brother Bin has a good sense of reason, and the answer to this question is really irrefutable."

Li Dongyang also laughed: "Yes, this child prodigy Cui is really smart, so he won! No matter if he will be asked again later, I will give him that picture."

Li Zhanshi shook his head and smiled: "I don't think you need to take the exam. Cui Xie's knowledge is indeed solid, not only clever. There is nothing wrong with his answer to your question-if it is an old man, it is also from "Hong Fan". He started with the theory of "Yu Mo" and "Wu Mo". What he lacks is probably due to the failure of the "Book" and his negligence."

Li Dongyang could no longer use his joking attitude towards the teacher, and replied: "The teacher is right, the disciple didn't mean to make fun of him, but sincerely felt that he passed the disciple's exam."

He didn't ask anyone to take out the painting and send it to the mansion that day. It was probably that the free chapter of "Mr. Shuixi" was not well engraved. He had to ask someone to engrave the chapter first, and then write a poem to redeem the painting.

Cui Xie asked Cui Qi to take Xiao Qiao's picture, and after unfolding it, he took a closer look, and saw a new poem inscribed on the upper right corner of the screen with the same handwriting as the original postcard. Although it was also chanting Xiaoqiao, the second half of the poem revealed the meaning of using the past to satirize the present and persuade people to cherish the time.

The title of the poem's whereabouts is Li Binzhi's gift to Qian'an Cuisheng, and he sealed a few bright red small seals. There is Binzhi and Xiya, but there is no "Mr. Shuixi". For the time being, Yue Mo still does not want to claim this vest.

Everyone has vests that they don't want to open.

Cui Xie smiled understandingly and told Cui Qi to receive the painting in his study, and got up to go to the main hall to ask for peace. Cui Liangdong leaned forward and handed him a letter again. He looked at him and said, "This is left by the little servant who came to send the painting. The little servant has a big tone and said that this is something that is hard to find. You don’t need to ask if you are a subordinate. It’s good for you. The son will know when he comes back to open it."

Cui Xie even brought home the emperor's handwritten plaque, the silver and treasures given by the crown prince, and raised the family's vision, and thought about everything. When he opened the envelope, the two of them added an attendant Xiao Songyan, and six pairs of eyes stared at the envelope tightly, wondering what was inside.

He opened the letter gently, and saw a big red post lying quietly inside, with the words "Li Dongyang" written in two lines of ink on the cover. The small characters next to it are written with the words "Bachelor of the Hanlin Servant and the official position of the Shidong Palace".

Seeing that they were a bachelor, they all felt disappointed, and each sighed slightly. Only Cui Xie knew the weight of this post, read it carefully and carefully, and carefully sealed it back in the envelope, holding it with both hands.

Although this post is not even enough to go to Shuntian Mansion to ask for personal love, it is a stepping stone to squeeze into the circle of Chaling School and well-known literati. When the new emperor ascends the throne and Li Dongyang becomes the elder of the cabinet, let alone...

Cui Xie banged his heart a few times, took the post and walked back to the study, sandwiched it into the thick "Tong Jian", sealed the book cover box, and placed it in a secret and safe place on the edge of the shelf. .

The author has something to say:
